>>Am i able to keep them not in a tank but in a deep rubber made like container?

This is the best time of year to find a large storage box. A few years ago I bought a 55 gallon clear plastic Christmas tree storage box for only $19.99 plus tax at Target. I've never seen storage boxes that large in the local stores except at this time of year.
My painted has lived in that box for all these years, there's a lot of room for him in it. I have the filter, lights, submersible heater, everything he needs, no problem... well....
no problem until I bought a new Magnum filter.
The filter works in there but the hoses have to be propped up because they just aren't made to fit this plastic box. He already has a new 55g glass tank but.. can't move into it until the new aquarium stand is finished.
I love using plastic storage boxes though, for me they are much easier to keep because of their light weight.
